quote:iwot productions and Radar Pictures have set “Thor” and “X-Men: First Class” screenwriter Zack Stentz to pen a the first of a planned film trilogy adaptation of Robert Jordan’s bestselling book series “The Wheel of Time”. Pretty loving ballsy of them. Don't even know if the show is any good.

The Hamilton nominations feel like cheating. It's a really great play, we know! That's why it won every loving Tony! Just because they filmed it doesn't make it a TV show, c'mon.

I agree. Plus LMM shouldn’t be nominated for actor in the first place because he is just not that good of a performer and it’s especially obvious in the filmed version. Like I’m a huge Hamilton fan but come on now

It's a shame that Dispatches from Elsewhere didn't get a nomination given the talented cast. Guess it was too quirky for people.

Dispatches was eligible for last year’s awards, not this year’s. But it didn’t get anything then either.

A real game would be "What was the first episode of Doctor Who to air in your lifetime?" but I'm pretty sure that still leaves us 80's babies out to dry, as well... Also, it's Shark Week and this poo poo is b-a-n-a-n-a-s: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OEVtwlNZnu0

I was curious and looked this up, and turns out the first Doctor Who scene in my lifetime was Sylvester McCoy with a wig regenerating into Sylvester McCoy without a wig.

I think Juno Temple is really good on Ted Lasso. Never seen her do comedy before and it's a shame not even a nomination. e: oh she did get nominated. Ok i'm fine then.

I'm not really clear why there's a "Lead Actor in A Movie" category. Like the Oscars was a ton of streaming films, right? We're not pretending a movie released to Amazon or Netflix or Disney+ is "tv", right? So why is Hamilton?

Don't the Oscars still have the "must have played at least x number of times in a theater" requirement? I remember that being a thing with The Irishman. Presumably the movies that don't meet that standard would be the ones going for Emmys instead.

IIRC due to the pandemic they lowered the requirement to one week and opened up more cities that were valid locations for the run.

Argus Zant posted:It depends on the studio in question and the specific movie; bigger movies with more hype around them (sequels, primarily) can see the studio demanding a bigger cut. I'm not entirely sure if it was ever confirmed, but the smoke on the street around the release of the last Avengers movie is that Disney was demanding 100% of the release weekend box office take. Disney had some insane rules for theaters that wanted to show Endgame. Not only did they demand 100 percent of release weekend box office, they insisted that any theater that wanted Endgame opening weekend had to commit at least 75 percent of its screens to it for the first two or three weeks.

Randomly poking around IMDB and just discovered that they made a Rush Hour TV show?  https://www.imdb.com/title/tt4085584/?ref_=nm_flmg_act_18 To top it off, it was created by Bill Lawrence.

There have been rumors of them doing so--potentially even buying AMC or Regal outright--ever since the Supreme Court struck down the Paramount Consent Decrees a few years ago (studios can get into the business of owning theaters beginning in August 2022, I believe).
